Using TROY Fonts

Determining a

Character

Mapping

To determine which key on your computer keyboard that a TROY character or symbol is “mapped” to, simply compare the ASCII number of the selected TROY character or symbol to the same ASCII number listed in the Standard ASCII Character Map (shown on the next page) to determine which keyboard key can be used to access the selected TROY character or symbol.

Accessing

Unmapped

Characters

Some of the font sets provided on the TROY Security Printing Solutions CD contain more characters or symbols than can be “mapped” to the available keys on a standard computer keyboard. In this case, these characters can be accessed by manually entering the ASCII number (see example at right) designated for each character (refer to the character tables on the following pages). The hexadecimal number shown below the ASCII number is used for programming mainframe computers.

65 ASCII Number

0041 Hexadecimal Number

A Character or Symbol

To access a character or symbol that is not “mapped” to one of the keys on your Windows computer keyboard, you can manually enter the ASCII number by holding down the ALT key on your keyboard, entering the associated ASCII number for the character you wish to access, and then releasing the ALT key.

NOTE: You must use the numerical keypad on your keyboard to enter the ASCII number. The number keys along the top of the keyboard will not work for this application.
